PlatinumGames confirmed that various announcements will be made to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Bayonetta franchise. These announcements will be made on PlatinumGames’ official social media channels, and it’s unclear if it will be related to a game release for the Bayonetta series yet.
Bayonetta first launched on October 29, 2009, but the company is celebrating the game’s worldwide release in January 2010. Celebrations for the Bayonetta 15th anniversary will last one full year, according to PlatinumGames. You can also now download official Bayonetta New Year’s wallpapers on the PlatinumGames website, with or without a January 2025 calendar.
Here’s a message from PlatinumGames, via their updated website:
Thanks to everyone’s support, Bayonetta has now reached the 15th anniversary of its release. It is because of you, our fans, that we are able to celebrate this special milestone. Please let us use this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude!
Since its inception, PlatinumGames has continued to push the boundaries of action games. In 2009, we were able to deliver a brand-new action experience with the release of Bayonetta, which is a title that we are still very proud of to this day.
Over the past 15 years, we have been able to walk alongside Bayonetta and the series’ charming cast of characters. Bringing joy to so many people through Bayonetta has been an invaluable journey for us.
Moving forward, we will continue to take on new challenges to create games that surprise and delight our fans. We look forward to your continued support of Bayonetta and PlatinumGames!
